hey guys im playing in rulez server
and after some min i got kicked be punkbuster for losing packets 0914 or somethingn like that and some more players have that problem as well what happends guys please HELP

If you're losing key packets then it's probably meaning that your connection is weak and losing too much data that PB sends to the server.

If you're wireless, change the location of your dongle thingy.
I would suggest plugging your PC directly into your router to see if that sorts the problem out.

Moved to PR:BF2 Support.

Same on *NwA* random PB kicks for multiple player.

Seems to be a wide spread problem.

*NwA*, PRTA & UKWF are seeing lots of disconnects relating PB

all servers are having the problem ATM

We lost 30 players at once on PRTA today.

PRTA having major packet lost, about 10 - 15 players happen to drop out time to time.

Some claim that updating pb helps, yet all I got was "all versions up to date" message, still I downloaded the pb files again and overwritten them. Doubt if it helps though. -.-

I've updated PB and got kicked anyway.

just on a server and non of the caches showed up even after 5 mins and when we found and destroyed a few nothing came up and no points were gained or tickets lost etc ... loads of people getting kicked too including me with no error

updating pb doesnt work

Same problem on all servers I've played today. Updating PB does not solve it.

Lets stay tuned for this, and hope that PB management team will have a hell of a weekend to solve this problem, as for me and my activities that is planned during weekend, it's gonno be a *****.

Did you try to update PB?
That usually solves most of the problems!

I tried updating using pbsetup and it didn't work for me :/ Not fun.

Can this stupid Punkbuster not be removed?

Also, I just got kicked, "kicked for 5 minutes blablabla, losing key packets 9014"

Was there a server-side patch lately?

Same problem on three different Euro-based servers.
